Bill Herring - Training Session

Founder of The Herring Institute

It's no wonder that the most successful training and motivational seminars would be created and developed by Bill Herring. No other instructor in the country has a similar background.

As a former high school teacher and basketball coach, Bill combined his ability to communicate, teach, and motivate students with over 30 years of on-the-job experience in the research and development of selling methods and techniques...from the fundamental stage to the most advanced.

While teaching school in the late 1960's, Bill was recruited by Josten's Inc., a fortune 500 corporation in the school products industry. Recognized for his outstanding sales skills, Bill was quickly promoted through the ranks...landing in management and sales training. It was during Josten's frequent and intense one week "New Man Schools" that Bill's dynamic speaking gifts took shape. Utilizing "Relationship Selling" as the key to successful selling...he was decades ahead of other trainers with his cutting-edge philosophy of Sequential-Conversational-Discovery and gave seminar attendees a huge competitive advantage.

With a move to Florida in the early 80's, Bill entered the real estate field working with several major national new home builders in the capacities of salesman, manager and sales trainer, winning many awards for his accomplishments.

Founding The Herring Institute, a seminar and training company in 1988, Bill quickly became the #1 Sales Educator in his field. His sales techniques and enthusiasm have been elevating corporate spirit, sales, and profits across the country.

Dedicated to excellence, Bill has the gift to educate and motivate. Combine that with humor, integrity, and insight...and the result is a powerhouse of talent and motivation. He has a style that is professional and polished, yet he is still 100% genuine and sincere. His versatility allows him to customize a program to your exact needs.
